When: March 2-4
Where: Washington, DC

March 2, 3, 4 Troop 565 is planning a trip to Washington DC. It will cost @$150 for lodging, food and entertainment. The scouts will spend 2 nights in the Washington D.C. Youth Hostel. Tour the Spy Museum, monuments, museums, and hopefully the White House. Dinner Saturday will be at the Hard Rock Café. They will also see an IMAX movie Saturday evening. The troop will depart Friday evening and return Sunday.

In order to secure the reservation at the hostel a deposit is required immediately. The deposit is $32 per person and must be received by the January 8, 2007 troop meeting. The deposit is non-refundable and signifies a commitment to go on the trip. The total cost of the hostel will be $64 so if you can not go on the trip you will be obligated to pay an additional $32 to cancel. They have a non-refundable cancellation policy and we will be using the deposit to reserve 2 nights for each person.

I apologize for the short notice but the hostel will only hold the reservation until this week without a deposit. They also need an exact count so that they can make sure we have a sufficient number of private rooms for the scouts and adult volunteers.

The deposit of $32 is required for all participants, scouts and adults, and must be received by Jan. 8th. Contact Jill Lau if you have any questions about the arrangements. There will be more detailed information on itinerary as the trip gets closer. It is most critical at this time that the hostel reservation is secured and the exact number of participants is finalized. Scout account money can be used for the deposit.
